This was really good. I tweaked it just a bit. Instead of sprinkling the seasoning on the chicken, I mixed it in with some olive oil in a bowl, then brushed it on both sided of the chicken before cooking. Came out wonderful. My picky kids ate it up and asked for seconds!

The clasic Hungarian dish uses much more paprica (a quarter cup if you believe it) as well as garlic, and tomato paste. This is not quite the same as a gulash, but it's too weak for my taste.

I had to triple the paprika and use four cloves of real garlic (not powder!) to make it taste seasoned.

quite bland. This is just chicken with a little dry spice. Depending on the Hungarian or Austrian region, chicken paprikas is made with a sauce containing tomato or sour cream and also onions.

Delicious! I added some salt and 2 cloves of garlic on top of the powder to give it some more flavour, and it turned out absolutely great.

I used more Paprika as some of the review suggested. However, I think I overdid it. Next time I will use a little less. I also used a few tablespoons of Olive oil.

I mixed the spices with olive oil and rubbed it on the chicken, which seemed to work a little better, also added more paprika.
